1. Preventing Pigmentation

Pigment Correct inhibits melanin production with powerful ingredients like Rumex Occidentalis extract and Nonapeptide-1. Studies have shown that Rumex Occidentalis can lower melanin content within 3 weeks which makes it a promising solution for reducing melasma in the skin. In fact, one study compared Rumex Occidentalis 3% cream with 4% Hydroquinone cream and found that it was equally effective in treating melasma.

Nonapeptide-1 not only inhibits the tyrosinase enzyme by up to 35%, it also interferes with the melanocyte-stimulating hormone (MSH) that increases during pregnancy and sun exposure. Daily use of Pigment Correct can help limit the production of MSH, reducing the risk of developing pigmentation.

2. Pigment Correct Reduces Existing Pigmentation

Pigment Correct contains Nonapeptide-1, which can lighten pre-existing pigment by reducing the melanin content of melanocytes by up to 43%. This can help fade existing pigmentation and even out your skin tone for a more youthful complexion.

3. A Safer Alternative to Hydroquinone

While Hydroquinone is a common ingredient in many pigmentation treatments, it can cause severe reactions such as redness, itching, stinging, cracking of the skin, bleeding, and blisters. Moreover, Hydroquinone creams are not sold over the counter in the UK due to their potential harm if used incorrectly. Pregnant and breastfeeding women should not use Hydroquinone.

Pigment Correct is formulated with naturally derived, pregnancy and breastfeeding-safe alternatives to Hydroquinone. These ingredients are much gentler on the skin and offer other additional benefits such as reducing inflammation, warding off bacteria and providing antioxidant protection.

4. Reducing the Risk of Post-Inflammatory Hyperpigmentation (PIH)

Post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH) can occur after a skin injury or irritation, as nitric oxide production is increased, triggering melanin production.

Pigment Correct contains 5 ingredients that inhibit tyrosinase, including Alpha-arbutin, Uva Ursi leaf extract, Kojic Acid, Rumex Occidentalis extract, and Nonapeptide-1.

Regulating the tyrosinase enzyme is crucial in reducing the potential of PIH. Pigment Correct is an effective solution for preventing post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation. Therefore, it is the perfect pre-treatment protocol, especially for patients with Fitzpatrick 4-6 skin tones who are more predisposed to PIH.

5. Pigment Correct has Antioxidant and Anti-Inflammatory Benefits

Pigment Correct is not only focused on reducing pigmentation. It also has antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties.

Antioxidants are essential for neutralising free radicals, which can cause irreversible cellular damage and premature ageing. Arctostaphylos Uva Ursi Leaf extract fights free radicals, slows aging, and reduces pigmentation and inflammation for healthier skin.

6. Enhanced by Hyaluronic Acid

Pigment Correct also contains Hyaluronic Acid. A well-known hydrating humectant that can hold up to 1000 times its weight in water, providing intense hydration.

Additionally, the superior form of Sodium Hyaluronate (Hyaluronic Acid) in this formula pushes the active ingredients deeper into the skin. This ensures enhanced action and ensuring maximum effectiveness.
